Is “I usually play better” the most delusional line in rec play? In this week’s Dink or Destroy, we’re calling out excuse-energy and debating whether it’s ever okay to downplay a loss.
Then we sit down with Dawna Strouse, founder of Dink Date—a new AI-powered app making waves in the pickleball world by matching players on and off the court. From paddle-powered flirting to court chemistry, Dawna breaks down how her app is changing the game.
Plus: missing high school classes we wish existed, UK pickleball growth, and the hilarious downside of equine science electives.
